"You two did it." Atticus smiled.
Marnie soon hugged her little sister.
"Good going," Dylan told her. "You got more than the weird part down."
Gwen, Aggie, and Drell soon came to them. Aggie and Gwen happily reunited with the siblings.
"Cherry actually saved the day." Atticus told Drell.
"Cherry?!" Drell gaped at the perky goth.
"I memorized the spell..." Cherry shrugged.
"I'm very proud of you." Drell smiled.
"You're proud of me...?" Cherry replied in shock.
"That's right." Drell said.
Cherry looked a bit sheepish as she felt like she wasn't expecting that.
"You've got all the power of the Cromwells and twice the guts." Aggie smiled proudly to Marnie.
Gwen soon realized she was wrong.
"Grandma, i-it was Kalabar." Marnie told her grandmother.
"Ah, yes, Kalabar," Drell crossed his arms. "Jealousy always got the bitter end of him, especially when it came to marital status and bearing children."
"Wait, does that mean Kalabar has kids?" Cherry asked.
"...No?" Drell looked around nervously, not wanting them to worry too much about the future.
"Drell?" Gwen asked impatiently.
Drell sighed. "Well, I didn't wanna say anything, but you might wanna look out for someone named Kal next Halloween if you decide to come here..." he then looked her right in the eyes. "That is, if your kids are allowed to celebrate Halloween."
"Yes, they'll be allowed." Gwen allowed.
This made the siblings smile in excitement to their mother's decision.
"KALABAR?!" Drell called out as the man was trying to get up before he walked toward him. "I want a word with you!"
"What do you want?" Kalabar glared as he stood up.
"Why did you do this?" Drell glared at him with Aggie and Gwen. "Are you that jealous that a mortal stole the girl of your dreams?"
"Exactly!" Kalabar glared back before looking toward Gwen. "You could've had me! The most powerful warlock of all. You could've ruled with me, as my queen! But you chose a human instead!"
"You didn't know that she was truly in love with that mortal." Drell glared.
"It turns out Mom's a pretty good judge of character." Marnie smirked while folding her arms at the Mayor of Halloween Town.
"Your days at rule are at an end, Kalabar." Aggie glared.
"Do not underestimate me," Kalabar smirked evilly. "I got rid of Delilah Fudo, I can do the same to you all!" he then raised his hand which made the talisman come from the pumpkin and into his clutches. "NOW, MY DARKNESS WILL SPREAD ABJECT, AND I WILL BE RULER OF BOTH WORLDS!"
Drell was about to get his wand out to turn Kalabar into a familiar to punish him like he had done with Salem nearly a century ago, but he then remembered how strong the talisman could become from more and more magical creatures using their magic. Aggie soon began to recite a magical spell as she stepped in Drell's place as he soon restrained himself. Gwen soon took her mother's hand as he gave the older woman a helping hand.
"YOU'LL WASTE YOUR ENERGIES, WITCHES!" Kalabar taunted.
"Man, that jerk..." Dylan grumbled. "I'd like to... I'd like to..." Magic sparkles began to form in the boy's fingers.
"Dylan!" Marnie told her brother in excitement.
"What?" Dylan replied.
"Looks like we just added another witch to the family," Marnie smirked. "Or should I say 'warlock'?"
"No way!" Dylan gasped as he looked at his hands. "I don't have any powers; I'm the normal one in this family!"
"But normal is boring," Cherry told him before asking. "Do you want to be a boring person?"
"Hey, Chocolate Bar!" Marnie called out to Kalabar.
Drell snickered. "That was a good one."
"You better give that talisman back or you're in big trouble!" Marnie warned.
"Yeah!" Atticus added.
"You half-human brat and meddling nephew!" Kalabar glared toward them. "You think that your magic is any match for mine?!"
"Hmm... No," Marnie replied. "Let's see. My powers, and my mom's, and my grandmother's, and my sister's, and my brother's, and also, our two new friends' might do it. Hit it, guys!"
They all soon joined hands to combine all their magic into one as they had outnumbered Kalabar. Unfortunately, Dylan hadn't joined his hand in.
"Dylan, come on," Cherry told the boy. "If I can do this, you can do it too, and I didn't think I could do anything. I have very different magic than wiccan or witch."
"Silly witches, wiccan, and dream-bender!" Kalabar laughed as he held the talisman. "You Cromwells have failed, especially you, Fudo, you're a hasbeen just like your precious aunt!"
Atticus simply ignored Kalabar at what he called him.
"Dylan, we need you!" Marnie told her brother. "Believe!"
Dylan soon looked to his sister and then joined hands with her at last.
"Unleash the magic... Unleash the magic..." Drell said to himself about everyone else joining hands. "If we lose, then you're to blame... Kalabar has used it... Maybe abused it... So why don't you do the same?"
"Really?" Atticus and Cherry asked, unimpressed.
Drell nodded as he thought that would help motivate Dylan.
"No! No! NOOOOO!" Kalabar cried out as he was soon losing power from the talisman since everyone else was against him, and where the talisman soon overpowered him, destroying him.
The talisman then floated in the air before zipping back into Aggie's hand once Kalabar had been defeated. Everyone then cheered since Kalabar was no more and Halloween Town and the Mortal World were saved. The elderly witch woman then put the magic talisman back into the giant pumpkin.
"I'm so proud of you." Gwen whispered as she hugged Marnie.
"Mom?" Marnie replied.
"Yes, sweetheart?" Gwen asked.
"You were right," Marnie smiled. "There was a lot about Halloween Town that I didn't understand. And I'm sorry about the things I said and did."
"And I'm sorry that I didn't trust you," Gwen said. "You are everything I could've ever hoped for in a daughter and so much more."
The two then shared a hug together once they had made up with each other. Marnie soon noticed Luke walking off somewhere.
"Oh, I've got quite great company here, my dear!" Aggie beamed.
"I thought they were a handful before." Gwen commented.
"Hey, it wasn't me," Dylan chuckled. "That stuff coming out of my fingertips was probably static electricity. Either that or that Aurora Borealis I've been reading about."
"Nope," Cherry said. "That was magic."
"I forgot about Luke!" Marnie told the others before running off and she then soon found him. "Luke?" She asked as she knelt by the boy.
Luke sighed as he put the hood down and showed he had a very large nose and pointed ears. "Hi."
"Wow..." Marnie blinked. "So, this is the real you?"
"You wanna know the worst part?" Luke replied. "I wasn't even under a spell or anything. I did what I did because he made me handsome. Guess it wasn't much of a reason for being evil and all. Especially since when I was good looking, I didn't have a chance to get a date with you."
Cherry heard what Luke said. "A date?!"
Luke turned away sheepishly. "Yeah, it was stupid..."
Marnie didn't say anything, but she gave Luke a kiss.
"Wow..." Luke smiled shyly. "I guess I didn't turn into a handsome prince though, huh?"
"No, but you did that before when you decided to help us," Marnie smiled back warmly. "We never could've done it without you. Thanks."
"Yeah, thanks for the help." Cherry said.
Luke smiled back to them. "If you ever come back to Halloween Town, look me up."
Marnie smiled back with a nod. "We'll do that."
"Great." Luke smiled, though mostly toward Marnie.
Aggie soon came over. "Marnie, we have to go," She told her granddaughter. "Luke, we have a job for you."
Hearing this news made them both happy. They soon went over together to see what the big hubbub was since it was great news.
Everyone was cheering and clapping for Aggie and her family as they were their saviors, especially with Cherry and Atticus's help.
"Aggie, you're coming back with us, right?" Atticus asked.
"He has a point, Mother," Gwen added. "I have to admit you're very good with the kids."
"Thank you." Aggie replied, seeming surprised by her daughter's reaction.
"You know, I was thinking," Gwen then said. "I could use a babysitter on Thursday nights. You know, my PTA meetings, sometimes they go on forever."
"Well, you know I can't cross over," Aggie replied. "Only on Halloween night."
"Hmm... Well, then I guess you're just gonna have to come live with us." Gwen smiled.
"She has a point." Drell said.
Marnie gasped in wonderfully delighted surprise.
"That is... If you want to..." Gwen told Aggie.
"Grandma's gonna come live with us? Oh, that'd be so cool!" Marnie beamed. "You know, I can show you all my books, all the Frankenstein movies on video, and then you can show me how to-Oh, no, where's mine and Cherry's brooms?!"
"Oh, don't panic, dear, don't panic." Aggie replied before whistling.
Aggie's bag soon started to move towards her.
"Yes... Follows me everywhere," Aggie chuckled out of amusement. "Open it up, open it up!"
Marnie soon opened the bag and took out her broomstick and Cherry reached in and then saw her own broomstick inside as well.
"I figured you'd pick the Dragonfly once." Drell chuckled to Cherry based on the color scheme.
"How could I not?" Cherry asked.
"Our brooms!" Marnie cheered to Cherry.
"I thought we could continue the studies." Aggie smiled to her granddaughter.
"Uh... No." Gwen replied as she took Marnie's broom from her.
"Mom?" Marnie asked.
"I'm going to finish your training." Gwen then smiled to her.
"Ooh!" Aggie beamed and giggled after Marnie and Gwen shared a hug.
"All Aboard the Mortal World!" Luke announced as he rang a bell inside of the bus.
The group soon got on the bus.
"All aboard! All aboard!" Aggie told her grandchildren. "Oh, the smallest first!"
"I'm gonna figure out how this thing works." Dylan commented as he took his grandmother's bag.
"Good luck." Aggie smirked.
They soon all got onto the bus so they could finally go home.
"Happy Birthday, Cherry." Atticus said.
Cherry soon zipped to him to give him a hug which nearly looked like Sapphire's hug to Ruby due to their body statures. "Thank you, Atticus."
"You're welcome." Atticus smiled as he hugged her back.
"I'll be sure to tell your grandmother about this, Cherry," Drell said as he helped the perky goth up into the bus. "I'm really proud of you, whether you think I'm kidding or not. This feat such as yours should not go unrewarded. Just name it and it shall be yours."
"Really?" Cherry asked.
"Yep, anything." Drell said.
"Hmm..." Cherry hummed as she had a lot to think about right now.
"Consider it as my birthday present for you." Drell replied as he joined them on the bus.
"I want to go to Monster High." Cherry said.
"Oh, I dunno..." Drell replied.
"You said anything, Drell," Atticus smirked. "And it's Cherry's birthday..."
"Well..." Drell rubbed the back of his neck. "I have to talk with Dracula about this before anything else."
"Alright." Atticus said.
"I just hope I can get to him before he craves a Bloody Mary if you know what I mean..." Drell mumbled.
"So, we can go to Monster High?" Cherry asked.
"Just let me talk with some people first and I'll get back to you as soon as possible." Drell replied.
"Alright." Atticus and Cherry said.
Everyone clapped and cheered as they got on the bus and they all waved back to the citizens of Halloween Town. They soon left back to the human world.
"Thanks, kids!" Benny waved. "See ya in the afterlife! HA!"
"Bye, Benny!" Marnie giggled while Aggie blew kisses.
The bus soon took them back to the human world.
"I'll see ya later, I can feel it in my bones! HA!" Benny called out as he made his lame puns again.
"I wonder if he's related to Sans and Papyrus?" Cherry smirked to herself since she was a fan of Undertale which had talking skeletons that told jokes, especially Sans.
"Nope." Drell shook his head.
"Who asked you?" Cherry rolled her eyes as they were soon going back home.
Once they were back home, they went their separate ways. Cherry yawned as soon as they were back home and came to lie down.
"Say hi to your grandmother for me, Cherry." Aggie told the girl.
"Will do." Cherry nodded as she looked ready for bed.
The End
